I' Treating Cotton Seed To Co«-
I trol Nematodes until the
■ young seedlings establish a good
■ root system may be a valuable
1 possibility. It is being tried on f
Ea demonstration basis with)
E George Jordan of Rviand com-!
k munity.
I Last week, Mr. Jordan was
1 planting cotton where a severe (
I infestation of sting nematode oc- i
Icurred in ‘peanuts in 1958. The (
■Shell Chemical Company furn-j
Sashed us enough Neuiagon paw-!
■ der to treat a half bushel of,
3 seed. Under the supervision of]
| Harry Venters, Mr. Jordan treat-1
;ed a half bushel of seed and
| planted partly across the infest
§ ed area.
Field inspections will be made
| during the early growing sea
\ son. The results will be pub
\ lished.
A New Peanut Variety Is Be
ing Tried on a field basis. Ex-,
periment 13 variety developed
by Dr. W. C. Gregory of the
I Lewiston Research Station gave
excellent results in field trials
i last year.
In a variety test demonstra-
I tion conducted with T. E. Cor-
I prew of Cross Roads Communi
|ty the following comparison
I with N. G. 2 variety was ob-
I served. Experiment 13 yielded
1 1,912 pounds per acre and N. C.
| 2 yielled 1,708 pounds. The 13
| graded 71 percent and N. C. 2
| graded 75 percent sound ma-
I ture kernels. Experiment 13
| graded 72 percent and N. S. 2
i graded 32 percent fancv size.
Experiment 13 graded 55 per
i cent and N. C. 2 graded 34 per
cent extra large kernels. Cal
: culated value per acre was Ex
: periment 13, $207.10 and N. C.
2, $185.56.
Experiment 13 is a large pea
nut. It has a very light skin
color. The flavor and eating
quality is excellent. Is it a pea
nut which is desired or will be
accepted by the trade? To find
the answer to this question, the
trade must try it in sufficient i
volume. I

Every Saturday morning atj
9:3u WCDJ carries an immense-/
ly interesting and informative
program called “The UFO I
Story’” In addition, last Sat
urday afternoon, we carried |
“UFO Special.” for an hour, fur- 1
ther explaining the subject of
unidentified flying objects or
flying saucers. In the column!
this week. I’d like to add a few
more thoughts and a few more'
facts on this vital, but complete-1
ly hushed-up subject. We’ll do
it in the form of didyouknows.'
For instance: Did you know
that while the U. S. Air Force
informs its commands to take
the subject of flying saucers
seriously in connection with the
defense of our coun-tryy, it re
verses itself and tells the public
that the saucers don’t exist. Did
you know that while the Air |
Force was telling the public
they were seeing mere halluci
nations, they were sending up
their fastest jets to chase those
so-called hallucinations? Did
you know that every year the]
Air Force tells the public they
are closing their latest UFO pro-t
ject, but neglects to ‘tell the pub
lic a new one is being set up

one of the highlights of the
day included the visit to the
Duke Chapel, this chapel was
first in 'the mind of James Bu

to create a feeling of reverence
and inspiration upoh entering.
After this the group traveled
to Raleigh, where they toured
He State School for the Blind

beautiful selection on the piano
arid ' read a story in Braille.
Souvenirs that the students had
mack- could be purchased.
At the; State Prison - the war

have bean killed since the pri

Upon entering the State Mu

ing in a different world. Fero

••comer and pre-historic monsters
were also displayed.
In the Hall of History the
group enjoyed reviewing the
progress and development of the
state.
A ride around the State Fair
